Back at the apartment building, Ma Changying, still sitting in the taxi, spotted two familiar elderly figures at the entrance to the residential area from afar.
They were dressed very neatly, exuding an air of grandeur.
Ma Changying remembered that these were Wen Xuanming's parents, a couple preoccupied with appearances and looking imposing.
Yet their relationship with Ma Changying was actually not bad, at least not when she married Wen Xuanming. It was just that, while not bad, it couldn't be said to be particularly good either. After the divorce, they never met again.
In her memory, these two elderly people always regarded face as more important than anything else.
When that incident with Wen Xuanming happened, she wondered if his parents felt they had lost face. However, if they had, they probably wouldn't have shown up here today.
